Cities of Magick

In the tradition of epic fantasy, Cities of Magick (2022–present, Scout Comics) follows a young hero navigating a world where magic has been outlawed and its practitioners driven into hidden city-states. Across its initial five-issue run, artist Will Tempest brings the series' sprawling, enchanted landscapes to vivid life, with design work by Justin Birch grounding the mystical setting. This series matters for its fresh take on the classic "magic vs. order" conflict, offering readers a visually rich, character-driven adventure from a rising independent publisher.
